For new folks, here's links to the Kanaskat-Palmer state park near Seattle.

It's on again! Northwest Chilefest Chileheads Campout at the

Kanaskat-Palmer State Park

September 6-8, 2019

Weather is still good in September, and if there are burn bans in the summer, they are usually lifted by mid-September.

The rest of the info is the same. We get campsites in the #24-#27 area, and a couple people have dibs on the 2 yurts across from the bathrooms. We'll have lots of room and some big picnic tables for the Saturday potluck at the double yurt site.

If anyone wants a yurt, it should be booked soon. I already have campsite #24.

Also, some of us are staying extra days just for a more relaxing weekend. I'm coming in Thursday and staying to Monday.

Those who live in the greater Seattle area are welcome to day-trip. Come on out Friday evening, all day Saturday, or Sunday. Sunday morning is breakfast and Bloody Marys and we usually have an antenna and TV set up for the Seahawks game.

It's a family friendly event and the state park is a great place for kids.

I didn't realized the campout would be in Western Washington this year - was expecting EWA. This is almost my backyard. I grew up fishing for trout and steelhead on the Green River. Looking forward to this!
